how much actual chassis was changed? IDK the RXC looks good though, I dig it.  edit: 137" ?  hmmmm... 

pile on boys, this isn't the brand specific safe space... and don't forget to in on one.

It is a better equipped sled right out of the crate.

Certainly seems that way.

To that point though, I'm not in the loop on the latest rules....how is it that Polaris can field their 600 XCR without it being available to consumers? Maybe I'm mistaken, but on their website only the 650 is available.

Minimum build.  

Between what they sell in the Midwest, out East, up in Alaska, in Quebec, and probably some in Scandinavia too, they don't need to worry about consumers buying them and complaining.  They'll just huck them to racers and sell every one.

I suspect Doo could do the same thing with their Comp package XRS and not have to sell it to any swinging dick who can walk into a dealer, but anything for a buck, right?

Doesn't matter, the Cat is built for the average rider where 99% ride as is. Not everyone wants to exceed 50 mph

as you stated the first time, it's competition ready, just add carbides, studs and your favorite energy drink decals.

ironic though that the SX sled gets the primo brake rotor, C&A's and bits in the box but the RXC 'comp' does not. maybe they'll rectify that with the clutching and gearing for next year?

Well only one guy here has the insider information’s to determine this.  Guessing he will inform us when and if.  No worries.

He said you are not allowed to buy one. You will abuse it and that is not ok

I didn’t follow “ the book” for breakin.  Also I was told I’m fucked , racers first.  I guess I’ll have to wait. 

I see the general public is reporting the same crap as last on a small circle track at erx on the demo ride. The 858 must be a real turd as they have nothing new to say lol. 

I'm sure it's a real turd

Great response in snowest. Love the motor. Called it straight to the front. Guessing Greg skipped the event and drew up his own conclusions, like he always does.

All cat has to do is put the 600 helix in. It will be perfect with that helix 57/49 will rip in the 858.  No shit it will.

I love reading about clutching from people who probably have no clue. I have zero, so I dont talk about it.

You wouldn’t know a helix if it fell out of the sky and hit you it your Mellon. Much less a clutch weight.  Stick to average factory set ups.  Thinking that will suit you better.

Since I am 1000 miles at the moment, no I was not there and 2 not worth the time to ride around in a small track. It will tell you nothing

Exactly the response o was looking for.

So how many final drive belts? Dumbfuck. 

Who is “o” ?    I’m still waiting on the updated gear set??

We will find out tomorrow. It snowed so I can go wreck shit

Racers only for now. O for you, the zero.

Okay. So in your Engineering, background, what is it? This should be good.

The general consensus seems to be pointing to clutching issues.

You can throw all the gearing/cogs you want at it, but clutching still needs to be addressed.

If you actually ride yours you will know what it is.  O forget it.  
 

You won’t even notice. It’s perfect

He has as at least as much of an engineering background as you do, and far more knowledge about sleds.

Just like everyone who knows anything at all has been saying since the first ride, its the clutching.

Whatcha doin on AI lying and acting like you've ridden your catalyst, and a procross a couple thousand miles each this season.
